Memorial Day

The 18th Annual Memorial Day Observance at the Alabama National Cemetery is scheduled for Monday, May 25, 2026 at 9 am.  
The Memorial Day Ceremony, planned and executed by the Support Committee, is a time in which fallen heroes are remembered and honored in the way in which they deserve on the day set aside especially for that purpose. In keeping with our mission, we shall not forget those who paid the ultimate price for our freedom and will comfort and honor their families for their sacrifice.
